Obama Explains He Doesn’t Mind a Debate on Drug Legalization, But Doesn’t Think Legalization is the Answer

Drug legalization has been a frequently discussed topic recently throughout the world, and many world leaders are currently working to legalize marijuana in order to eliminate drug trafficking. While they look for a more liberal approach to solving the world’s drug trafficking issues, President Obama has become more conservative in his stance against drugs and marijuana as his presidency has progressed.

While in Colombia, President Obama told Univision, “I don’t mind a debate on issues such as decriminalization. I personally don’t agree that that’s a solution to the problem, but I think that, given the pressures that a lot of governments are under here — under resourced, overwhelmed violence — it’s completely understandable that they would look for new approaches and we want to cooperate with them.”

Obama’s in currently Colombia for the Summit of the Americas, where many people suspect that he will face pressure from other world leaders who are looking to legalize marijuana and other elicit drugs to work toward a lessening of trafficking charges and efforts throughout the world.

He was asked about decriminalization while in Colombia where cocaine is a bigger issue than marijuana legalization. He said he'll let the states decide, if CO ok's it i would highly doubt he would step in after the election. Romney, on the other hand, believes in "synthetic marijuana", which is ridiculous

we just got to wait it out another year and then hopefully with more states pushing for regulation we'll hopefully see a more lenient government after obama doesn't have to worry about being re-elected right now he has to play the politics game so shit might get worse before it gets better.

this is the man who signed NDAA we should expect nothing from him but impeachment.which they already tried,and still are,but this is the NWO we're dealing with,best thing to do i think,is to bitch and whine to like state congress members to impeach the liar and criminal(according to the constitution),and if we see no change we protest
